Area: 26.99 hectares or 66.7 acres
Location: 'The Willows' is located in the picturesque Tia area, approx. 40km South East of Walcha towards Yarrowitch. The Tia River area was once regarded as an area rich in gold and is popular for its cool climate, productive land and abundant water. Port Macquarie and the thriving oasis of the mid north coast is also only 150km away.
Home: The home is a comfortable four bedroom hardi plank home with central bathroom, several living areas (lounge and rumpus), mud room and outdoor entertainment area overlooking the shed and arena. The main bedroom has a walk in robe while two other bedrooms have built ins. For the cool nights, a slow combustion wood heater provides warmth in the winter.
Country: a soft, gently undulating block with basalt soils, The Willows features predominantly cleared land with good stands of shade timber. The property has been well fenced into numerous paddocks for both horses and cattle and enjoys terrific views towards the Tia River. It is a clean block, free from weeds and is presented with good grass cover and quality access throughout.
Water: water is supplied to the home and farm via rainwater and water pumped from the Tia River, as well as approx. 6 earth dams, predominantly spring fed. Stock troughs also provide water to numerous paddocks. There is also a 5000 gallon poly tank harvesting water from the new shed.
Infrastructure: infrastructure is in good order and is highlighted by a near new 34m x 12m high clearance shed with breeze way, kitchenette/lunch room, wash bay, tack room, mezzanine storage and an abundance of space for machinery. The shed has power right through, while the kitchen and wash bay have both hot and cold water. There is a separate machinery/hay shed and garage workshop area. The sand arena features a professional surface, with adjacent cattle pens and loading ramp. Fencing is in good order and all fences are fit for both cattle and horses.
Comments: A very neat property in a truly idyllic location, it has been home to a professional horse training operation but would be equally suited as an ideal lifestyle property away from the hustle and bustle of every day life. Being sold to facilitate an upsize, all genuine interest is encouraged with offers considered.
